the resident void-deck cat, who always waits for the block’s occupants and accompanies them to the lift. we have no idea whose it is.
the little one, from all his keen observation of cats, likes to pretend he’s one too. he’d have me tickle his chin and stroke his back and his ears. oh, and he’d stick out his tongue when i offer him pretend cat food, and scratch his own back just like his feline friends do. he makes a pretty good cat, i must say. at least more docile than his human persona, hehe.
he said he wants to bring it home and have it sleep in his bed (in not so many words, eg. “aniq nak! aniq house! sleep aniq’s bed!” etc, you get the gist).
i’m not a pet person (neither is my mum), so i doubt i’d ever let him keep a pet. even the less messy ones, like fishes or terrapins (which i used to have, but it somehow didn’t bring me much joy and was eventually given away).
so, i think we’ll stick to the void-deck cats. (yes, plural – there are plenty of them, and i’ve seen them breeding even more.)
and i’ll stick to little children. (they’re messy enough, AND have to be fed and toilet-trained too, you know! :p)
